Arsenal 7/5 to win against Liverpool in this afternoon’s Premier League clash

Arsenal welcome Liverpool to the Emirates Stadium in the Premier League this afternoon, and are favourites to come out on top against the Merseysiders to potentially finish the weekend top of the table.

Arsenal finished second in the Premier League last season with 71 points from 38 games, suffering just three defeats on home soil. Arsenal conceded just 11 goals from 19 games in their own backyard, and will fancy their chances against a Liverpool side who have lost two of their last three away meetings versus Arsenal.

The visitors finished eighth in the Premier League in 2015/16 with 60 points, suffering seven defeats on the road. Jurgen Klopp’s men are being tipped for a bright season, but their record against Arsenal has been poor in recent years. The two sides were poles apart in the league table and the gulf in class could be telling today.

Liverpool have only picked up one league victory from their last nine head-to-heads, and have won just once at the Emirates since 2000. As a result, Bet 365 are giving odds of 7/5 for Arsenal to see past Liverpool when the two sides lock horns this afternoon.
